AC-06(01) Authorize Access to Security Functions

Control

Authorize access for [Assignement: individuals and roles] to:
  1. [Assignement: organization-defined security functions (deployed in hardware, software, and firmware)] ; and
  2. [Assignement: security-relevant information].

Discussion

Security functions include establishing system accounts, configuring access authorizations (i.e., permissions, privileges), configuring settings for events to be audited, and establishing intrusion detection parameters. Security-relevant information includes filtering rules for routers or firewalls, configuration parameters for security services, cryptographic key management information, and access control lists. Authorized personnel include security administrators, system administrators, system security officers, system programmers, and other privileged users.

Assessment Objective

    1. access is authorized for [Assignement: individuals and roles] to [Assignement: security functions (deployed in hardware)];
    2. access is authorized for [Assignement: individuals and roles] to [Assignement: security functions (deployed in software)];
    3. access is authorized for [Assignement: individuals and roles] to [Assignement: security functions (deployed in firmware)];
  2. access is authorized for [Assignement: individuals and roles] to [Assignement: security-relevant information].

Assessment Method

Examine

Access control policy procedures addressing least privilege list of security functions (deployed in hardware, software, and firmware) and security-relevant information for which access must be explicitly authorized system configuration settings and associated documentation system audit records system security plan other relevant documents or records

Interview

Organizational personnel with responsibilities for defining least privileges necessary to accomplish specified tasks organizational personnel with information security responsibilities system/network administrators
